These photos show some of the many participants in the March of the Dead, who wore around their necks the names of some of the over one million people who have died as a result of the US wars on Iraq and Afghanistan. The March of the Dead began at 9:30 a.m. on the fifth anniversary of the war on Iraq, March 19, 2007. These photos were taken between 5:00 pm and 7:00 pm, when participants in the March of the Dead and other protesters met at the reflecting pool to march to the DNC. At around 6 or 6:30, between 20 and 45 of the protesters were arrested in the street at First Street NE, near the US Capitol.

Correction: re: Photos from March of the Dead, arrests by US Capitol

I think the arrests were actually at First St, SE. Sorry about that.

The total number of arrests at this action was 36, not 20 as reported by the media.
